 ====== Printer Setup on MacOS ======
-  - Before installing the printer on your Mac, it is always best to install the latest version of the print driver for the printer if it is available.  For general Lassonde building first floor printer (las1012), second floor printer (prt2), third floor printer (las3031), or Bergeron printer (brg303), install Ricoh's specific SP8400N driver which you can download [[http://support.ricoh.com/bb/html/dr_ut_e/re2/model/sp8400dn/sp8400dn.htm|here]].
+*If you are connected using York WIFI (AirYorkPlus), you need to setup and connect to York VPN first using the following link: https://www.yorku.ca/uit/faculty-staff-services/internet-access/secure-remote-access/
+  - Download the print driver for the printer you will be installing.  You can view a list of available printers with links to the print drivers [[https://wiki.eecs.yorku.ca/dept/tdb/services:printers:printers|here]].  If you don't have the driver for the printer that you're installing, you will be able to use a generic one.
   - From the Apple Menu, select "System Preferences".
   - Open "Printers and Scanners".
